To be fair. I have heard Phil Clarke wax lyrical about us many a times, even when playing Wigan

That's not the issue - the issue, if you bother to read the last few pages, was over a scrum and who's head and feed it was.

A decision more than likely given by the TJ.

Try and keep up.

And last night the correct decision was given, when Sam Tomkins caught the ball with his foot on the line. Head and feed to England.

Q.E.D.

Except he didn't catch the ball.

What's that got to do with anything?
Sam was out of play just like Whiting was when he touched the Ball.
Head and Feed to defending team.

and another biased bit of summarising from Clarky - not in the Saints game but in the highlights of the goons v cas game. He basically waxed lyrical about wigan and there players then as they were showing the cas tries he just started blathering excuses for wigan about players missing ....

He also encouraged the players to trap the opponents arm in order to gain a penalty (wonder who he's been watching), this was of course, when Bradford had possession.

Did you hear when he said 'it's all been down this end of the field' (when it showed Wigan scoring)? Don't think he realised it was showing the trys and to score, it had to be down that end of the field.

lol Yep, I was just astounded at his blatant bias. Cas's tried looked every bit as well worked as Wigans but he seemed intent on giving them no credit, funny he made excuses for the Goons but was going out of his way in the Saints game to dispel Eddie's (admittedly annoying constant ramble) view Saints players backing up would struggle a bit.

That's as maybe, but in the first round of SL, Clarke was the only one to back us to win the Grand Final this season. So I think he still has a sneaky little love for us. He's just bashful about showing it.

Between the 2005 to 2007 seasons he was a big saints fan, then he suddenly realised Saints were dominating the superleague on a par with the Wigoons in the late 80's early 90's. Is only the last 3 seasons he has shown bias against us.
